One person died in an apartment fire in Southeast Portland on Friday morning.

Batallion Chief Kyle Wochnick said a woman who lived in the apartment building at 15780 S.E. Division St. died in the blaze. She was not identified.

According to Ron Rouse, spokesman for Portland Fire, at least two other people were injured. He had no details about their identities, what units they live in or the extent of their injuries.

All of the units of the two-story Anderson Villa complex were evacuated. The Red Cross is on scene helping residents, and fire crews are putting out hot spots.

The fire was reported at 8:32 a.m. When the first firefighters arrived, they saw a thick column of smoke curling from the building, prompting a second alarm to be called. Two apartments in the complex were ablaze -- one on the ground floor and one on the second floor. The fire spread to two other units and to the attic, where crews punched holes in the roof to get control of the fire.

The flames downed a power line, forcing crews to work around it to ensure they didn't get electrocuted.

The fire was brought under control by 9:20 a.m. Fire investigators are on scene, looking into the cause of the blaze.
